S.Chand & Company Ltd

Our place is at A-66 on Minto Road in New Delhi. This area of the city has a lot of history, and you can feel it when you walk down the street. S.Chand & Company Ltd has been around for a long time, and this office reflects that history. It is not one of those new, shiny offices with open floor plans and glass walls. Instead, it is filled with stacks of books and papers everywhere you look. The smell of old paper is something you get used to pretty quickly after starting here. We spend our days going through manuscripts and checking on print runs. It is a lot of tedious work, but someone has to do it. The bells from the nearby traffic and the general hum of Delhi are always in the background. We have a lot of long-time employees who have been sitting at the same desks for decades. We don't really do the whole corporate culture thing with team-building exercises. We just work. People know us for what we have done over the years, not for some flashy advertisement on a billboard. The office can get a bit cluttered, and sometimes it takes a minute to find exactly what you are looking for in the files. But we have a system that works for us. It’s a very traditional way of doing business in a very traditional part of the capital. We just keep moving forward one page at a time. It's nothing fancy, just hard work.
